Definitions

  • the teeth whitening system 100 generally comprises a mouthpiece 101, a housing 102 coupled to the mouthpiece 101, an electromagnetic radiation source 103 coupled to the mouthpiece 101, and one or more apertures 104 formed into the mouthpiece 101.
  • the one or more apertures 104 are configured to dispense a tooth whitening material into contact with surfaces of a user's teeth.
  • the one or more apertures may be omitted.
  • the electromagnetic radiation source 103 is configured to emit electromagnetic radiation onto the surfaces of the user's teeth. The details of the dispensing of tooth whitening material and the emission of electromagnetic radiation on the user's teeth will be described in more detail below.
  • first and second ridges 119, 120 imitates the offset nature of the user's upper and lower teeth (typically a user's upper teeth extend further forward towards the front of the mouth than the user's lower teeth).
  • first and second ridges 119, 120 may be altogether omitted and proper spacing between the user's teeth and the wall 105 can be achieved by the recessed structure of the portions of the wall 105 as described herein above.
  • the tooth whitening material may be a liquid or a gel and may have varying viscosities selected to achieve a desired dispensing thereof.
  • the reservoir 127 may include no more than a single dose of the tooth whitening material.
  • the housing 102 may include an access panel 132 that provides access to the reservoir 127 within the housing 102.
  • the reservoir 127 may include multiple doses of the tooth whitening material, but may be configured to dispense only a single dose at a time, as described in more detail below.
  • the reservoir 127 stores multiple doses of the tooth whitening material 197 only a single dose will be dispensed at a time.
  • the processor 123 will instruct the power source 124 to transmit power to the electromagnetic radiation source 103, and in response the first and second electromagnetic radiation sources 103a, 103b will emit electromagnetic radiation onto the user's teeth 198, 199.
  • the tooth whitening material may be most effective when heated to a temperature of between 37°C and 47°C, and more specifically approximately 42°C.
  • the electromagnetic radiation source 103 may emit some heat while emitting electromagnetic radiation.
  • the processor 123 may be configured to cause the heater 126 to power on and off as necessary to maintain the desired temperature.
  • Various sensors such as temperature sensors or the like, may be included in the teeth whitening system 100 and operably coupled to the processor 123 to assist the processor 123 in determining when to power on and off the heater 126 to maintain an optimal working temperature of the tooth whitening material or other oral care fluid.
  • the first bladder 250 is positioned between the front surfaces of the user's upper teeth 298 and the first electromagnetic radiation source 203a and the second bladder 260 is positioned between the front surfaces of the user's lower teeth 299 and the second electromagnetic radiation source 203b.
  • the user is prevented from puncturing the bladders 250, 260 because the teeth 298, 299 are unable to enter into the first and second channels 209, 210 due to the structure of the upper and lower wall portions 205a, 205b as described above.
  • the user can then actuate the actuator 231, which in turn will cause the processor 223 to instruct the power source 224 to supply power to the first and second electromagnetic radiation sources 203a, 203b so that they emit electromagnetic radiation onto the surfaces of the user's teeth 298, 299 that are coated with the tooth whitening material.
  • the timer 225 and the processor 223 may monitor the operating time and automatically shut down power to the first and second electromagnetic radiation sources 203a, 203b after the treatment time has been reached in the manner described above.
  • the teeth whitening system 400 generally comprises a mouthpiece 401, a housing 402 coupled to and extending from the mouthpiece 401, and first and second electromagnetic radiation sources 403a, 403b coupled to the mouthpiece 401.
  • the mouthpiece 401 comprises a wall 405 comprising an upper wall portion 405a and a lower wall portion 405b, and a bite platform 406 extending from the wall 405 between the upper and lower wall portions 405a, 405b.
  • the electrical components located within the housing 402 include an actuator 431, a processor 423, a power source 424, a timer 425, and a heater 426 that are operably coupled together in the manner described herein above with regard to the teeth whitening system 100.
  • the teeth whitening system 400 further comprises one or more, and preferably a plurality of apertures 404.
  • a plurality of apertures 404 are formed into an upper surface of the bite platform 406 and a plurality of apertures 404 are formed into a lower surface of the bite platform 406.
  • the apertures 404 can be located at other positions, such as on one or both of the upper and lower wall portions 405a, 405b or the like.
  • the electromagnetic radiation sources 403a, 403b can be made to emit electromagnetic radiation onto the surfaces of the user's teeth 498, 499. Specifically, this can be achieved by the user actuating the actuator 431 or in any of the other manners described herein above with regard to the other embodiments. All of the functionalities of the electrical components with regard to providing power to the electromagnetic radiation sources 403a, 403b and keeping track of the amount of time that the electromagnetic radiation sources 403a, 403b are emitting electromagnetic radiation described above with regard to the teeth whitening system 100 is applicable to this embodiment.
  • the container 590 may hold a single dose or multiple doses of the tooth whitening material 597, although a single dose may be preferable in certain embodiments.
  • the mouthpiece 501 is inserted into the user's mouth in the same manner as has been described herein above. Once so positioned, a user will bring the container 590 up to the opening 572 in the housing 502 and mechanically couple the container 590 to the opening 572 if means to do so are available, or simply hold the container 590 in place within/against the opening 572. Once so positioned, the user will manually dispense the tooth whitening material 597 from the container 590.
